ost_uid0]C'mon, every sf fan has that movie that makes them cringe, perhaps even feel OFFENDED that the movie DARED include itself in the genre of "science fiction."
Cases in point:
Starship Troopers: WORST Heinlein adaptation EVER. They changed so much stuff the shouldn't even have bothered calling it "Starship Troopers." I SPIT on this movie, and I know the difficulties of transferring between media. Two words: Beowulf screenplay.
Johnny Mnemonic: the stain upon the record of William Gibson's cyberpunk excellence. The original story didn't suck. The screenplay writers/directors/producers/executives clearly deserve death.
the upcoming The Core (WHY, Hillary Swank, WHY?!): worst, WORST science EVER. Jules Verne is spinning in his grave. *shudders*
Any others?
